Happy Birthday, Dayna!!


Today is my big sister, Dayna's, birthday!! I won't say her age, but let's just say that next year she'll be over the hill!!!! I still can't believe that!
I love many things about Dayna, but the first thing that comes to mind is what a good mother she is to her four children. She is always so calm and composed when dealing with them, and she shows so much patience and love towards them. They adore her! I have learned a lot just by observing!
Dayna, you always have been and still are a role model to me. Thank you for always being a calming voice in my life. You always have good wisdom and advice and I appreciate and love that about you!
Next year.....BIG party!

Happy, Happy Birthday Dayna. Have a great last year in your 30's. I turned 40 this year and it has all been downhill, let me tell ya.

Dayna, from the sounds of it, you need to adopt about 15 more children. HA!

Aww...thank you so much Donna. That was very sweet. It has been a good day. It started out with the delicious checkerboard cake that Denise made for me last night! You always need to have cake for breakfast on your birthday!!!

As far as being a good mother...I learned from the best. Mom is such a good role model. Thank you momma for being the woman you are to all of us.

As far as 15 more children...let's not and say we did!!!

Happy belated birthday to you Dayna. How wonderful that Denise is now your neighbor. What I wouldn't give to have my brother and his family next door to me. It is wonderful!

You look fabulous.
